I think I've yet to meet boobies that weren't worthy of a prize of some sort.. Mm... Wandered a bit off topic, though! Grats to everybody, that was a good season!

Saw these guys a few times a few years back, they are amazing. There's what, three guys? And they have a fantastic light show, true to form.

I heard the same NPR stream, fantastic stuff.

1. How We Operate - Gomez 2. Sweet Jane - Cowboy Junkies 3. Wooden Ships - CSN 4. The End - The Doors 5. How Soon is Now - The Smiths 6. Tangerine - Led Zeppelin 7. Breakfast at Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something 8. Instanbul (not Constantinople) - TMBG 9. These Eyes - Guess Who 10. Innuendo - Queen

Well, I don't know if it's one song or not, but I think it was used in a holiday jewelry commercial or something, that's why it's familiar. Where did you get this copy of the song, by chance?

Sounds to me like it's Yanni, or maybe John Tesh. I'll see if I can't narrow that down.

Insult to injury!? What are you saying, that I'm not worthy of 3rd place?! I'm hurt.

Hey everybody, happy 2007! Sweet Jane - Cowboy Junkies How We Operate - Gomez

Out of all the Beatles, while the Beatles were together, Ringo got the most fan mail. Figure that one out.

1. Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy - David Bowie with Bing Crosby 2. Gabriel's Message - Marillion 3. Song for a Winter's Night - Sarah McLachlan 4. White Christmas - Bing Crosby 5. Christmas is Coming - Vince Guaraldi Trio 6. Silent Night - Stevie Nicks 7. Father Christmas - The Kinks 8. Carol of the Bells - Trans-Siberian Orchestra 9. Little Drummer Boy - Jimi Hendrix 10. River - Joni Mitchell If we could vote for the same song twice, I'd give the David Bowie/Bing Crosby one two votes. Love that song!

LOL, I feel your pain.

Kevin, I'm not feeling great about how much you were hoping I'd lose! Time for the big guns, yay playoffs!!

Wow.. How many versions of Little Drummer Boy can we vote for in one list!? It's my favortite christmas song after all.. I was going to nominate Jars of Clay's version, but I think we've got enough to choose from already. Sarah McLachlan - Song for a Winter's Night Her version of Gordon Lightfoot's song is just haunting.. The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top The snow is softly falling The air is still within the silence of my room I hear your voice softly calling If I could only have you near To breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love Upon this winter night with you The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead My glass is almost empty I read again between the lines upon each page The words of love you sent me If I could know within my heart That you were lonely too I would be happy just to hold the hands I love Upon this winter night with you The fire is dying now, my lamp is growing dim The shades of night are liftin' The morning light steals across my windowpane Where webs of snow are driftin' If I could only have you near To breathe a sigh or two I would be happy just to hold the hands I love Upon this winter night with you And to be once again with with you And, Gabriel's Message - Marillion Words are traditional The angel Gabriel from heaven came His wings as drifted snow His eyes as flame From God all hail the angel said to Mary Most highly favoured lady Gloria "Fear not for you shall bear a holy child By him to God be reconciled His name shall be Emmanuel The long-foretold" Most highly favoured lady Gloria Then gentle Mary humbly bowed her head "To me be as it pleaseth God" she said "My soul shall praise and magnify his Holy name" Most highly favoured lady Gloria And so she said "How happy I shall be All generations will remember me For God has kept his promises to Israel" Most highly favoured lady Gloria Of her Emmanuel the Christ was born On Bethlehem upon that Christmas morn And Christian folk throughout the world will ever say Most highly favoured lady Gloria
